    Except that John Kerry isn't a sitting president.

    I will agree that in the last week or so it has described John Kerry. For GW Bush that's been his whole campaign since day one.

    Sadly now that the Democrats have jumped into the fray it's all gotten very ugly and messy.

    Nader failed to meet the minimum requirements for the poll, even though the board Republicans mounted a 11th hour effort.

    Looks like Bush is starting to fade in Ohio. It is looking tough for Bush if he can't turn around the big mo. 48% to 46% Kerry.

    I voted for Kerry in this poll, but I'd like to change my mind. I feel like I could really use a hug today and I think Bush is just the president to give me one.

    Not that I think a bunch of dudes voting on a Rockets board can predict anything but.. somehow I think the popular vote is going to turn out to be very close to the numbers in this poll...

    Bush 48.86%
    Kerry 51.14%

    Tradesports can another futures market that let's you buy futures contracts on who will win the election (not the popular vote).

    Bush is up pretty big in this one. Futures markets have proven amazingly accurate in the past in predicting events.

    This board is giving Kerry a landslide decision, since it is so heavily weighted with "liberals". NOT.

    I hope you're right, texxx. If Bush loses, who will hug the country? Kerry? I don't think so!

    The thread is asking who people think will win, not who they're voting for.

    I believe there have been a few "who are you voting for" type threads in which Kerry has won by a wide margin.

    It is looking even worse for Bush. I'm not sure what state tipped for Kerry. I think it is Iowa which was shown as a tie.


    EV 291 Kerry: 247 Bush

    I saw on the ABC news Bush is hoping on a great mobilization of the anti-gay vote to try to pull it out for him in Ohio.
